house speaker john boehner says he is willing to work with president obama to reach a deal. boehner says this week's election is proof the american people want republicans and democrats to work together for a solution to a crisis that could plunge the country back into a recession. >> the american people have spoken. they've re-elected president obama and they have again re-elected a republican majority in the house of representatives. if there's a mandate in yesterday's results, it's a mandate for us to find a way to work together on the solutions to the challenges that we all face as a nation. >> boehner says the deal could include new tax revenue to help reduce the national debt. >>> don't be surprised if you've lost a few friends on facebook if you've shared your thoughts on the election on the social networking site. the election is sparking a facebook feud. those posts often offended people with different political believes. some took the dramatic step of unfriending the ranters, and for those not ready to end the friendship over politics, there's always the option of

where boehner is saying let's deal with this in 2013. he's actually trying to get this off the lame duck altogether, which is the way to ensure there's not a big deal. so in addition to the question about whether we are going to see a ball loance of revenues a spending cuts is whether we're going to get a big deficit deal which the president clearly wants and thinks is important. what you're hearing from boehner and mcconnell in washington speak is we don't want a deal, we don't want to go off the cliff and the only thing left is to punt. and i think that's a dangerous place as well because this is the issue one of the few times congress might be forced to actually do its job and get a budget passed for the american people. so when this question comes up about the bigger issue are we going to get a deal or not, what i'm hearing from boehner is no and the president yes. >> but the president's leverage doesn't go away if you punt for six months. i mean, it's not clear to me -- i agree with you that's one way to read the boehner/mcconnell p

boehner has a job to do. it is a party divided. you have the tea partiers who are ultraconservative. they don't want to give up their conservative values. and then you have the more moderates in the party and boehner needs to lead and maybe cut some deals on the side with more conservative members. jon: we're looking at him in that press event yesterday where he suggested that the republicans would be open to perhaps more revenue, chris, if there is some kind of major overhaul of the tax code. would democrats go along with that? >> again, i think that is definitely a pblt but, i think people need to understand that elections have consequences. the president, you know, ran on raising taxes on those making more than 250. if you look at the exit polls, the american people supported that position. so it is going to be very difficult i think with a straight face for boehner or the republicans to go into negotiations with either senator reid or the president to say, we don't want to raise taxes on the top 3%. >> but chris -- >> i don't k
